Marie Kress Boland

Marie was a dedicated Grandma who did so much for our kids (Patrick, Kevin, Shannon and Colleen). She made it much easier for two busy parents to cope with such a busy household. Having raised four children herself she brought a lot of practical experience to the table!
There were so many wonderful get togethers at her home whether it be for a major holiday or a summer afternoon at the pool. She liked everything to be perfect and invested a lot of personal effort and time to achieve...

A sister is a wonderful gift, and I have enjoyed the gift of our Marie for many happy years. I'm thankful for the years and the certainty that she is at peace.

Aunt Marie will be remembered as wonderful sister, aunt, mother and grandmother. She certainly knew how to host a great party too! I will always treasure my childhood memories of the Kress family gatherings.
I am holding my cousins and their families as well as the Kress siblings in my thoughts and prayers during this sad time.
May God grant Marie the peace she so deserves.
With love, Niece Janet

Hi my neighbors from Clover lane. My brother Mark down in Jacksonville was checking out the Bergen Record and saw that your mom passed and let me , Marie, Ellen and Anne know. Wanted to tell you how truly sorry it was to get this news as I have such great memories of her. Having left USR after college I really only saw her a handful of times since then, so the picture in my mind of her is her youthful face from the '70's driving that huge yellow and brown Suburban taking us to Interstate to...

My aunt Marie will always hold a special place in my heart. Too many special memories to list. Sending love to my cousins as they navigate through all these feelings at this time. Love to all.Mary Giuliano Raines
